Artist Name: Daniel Hermandez Video Type: Digital I chose this video because the effects used in it gave off a calming vibe, which is unlike a lot of experimental videos having a grudge to unsettle or creep you out. What attracted me the most about it was it’s usage of colors, often utilizing purple to give off a trippy feel. The art principles that can be found in this piece include color and perspective, as the colors used in this piece. Sound effects are important in this piece because it’s what gives the video it’s calm and relaxing feel.
Artist Name: Tyler Hulett Video Type: Film I chose this video because it is very simple in its execution, simply showing flowing magma across a landscape. What attracted me most about this video was how it sped up the footage of the landscape, which oddly makes it even more relaxing and soothing. The art principles that can be found here include rhythm, as the sped-up footage gives off a rhythmic vibe. Sound is not used, but calm, relaxing music is used to set the overall mood for the video.
Video Type: Multimedia I chose this video because of its entire lack of color - it’s completely black and white, which is different from a lot of experimental videos where color is a major component in making it what it is. This is what attracted me most about the video, as unlike some projects that utilize black and white imagery, doesn’t attempt to make it feel like a film for the 1930’s, but rather feels very modern. The art principles found in this piece are color and emphasis, as the black and white colors used in this help in giving the video it’s general feel, and certain aspects of the video emphasize the landscape or actions.
Video Type: Film Artist Name: syafiq latiff I chose this video because of its overarching theme, which, as seen in the video itself, is “you may delay, but time will not”, as well as the unsettling vibe it gives off as a man is running to his eventual death. What attracted me most about the video was its theme and its ending, as most experimental videos don’t have an overarching theme or something to say, but are rather just a collection of weird images. The art principles that can be found in this include movement, as a majority of the video consists of a man running. Music is used in this video to give an intense feeling
Video Type: Digital Artist Name: jbl
I chose this video for one reason and one reason only; it’s weird. Like, really weird. And that is one of the defining and recurring traits often found in an experimental video. What attracted me most about this video was it’s usage of both digital effects and captured footage, and how these two combined to make a satisfying piece that blends well together. The art principles that can be found in this piece are movement and balance, as the two mediums of digital effects and live footage combining gives off a fluid movement. Sound effects similar to a broken machine or a glitch is used in the video
Video Type: Film Artist Name: mikeshartz
I chose this video because it perfectly represents what an experimental video is supposed to be: weird, very loose with what it’s showing, and somewhat over the top. What attracted me most about this video was, ironically, it’s shoddy camerawork, which isn’t very good at all, but fits well within this type of video. The art principles used in this include space, as certain shots seen in the video are seen taken from various angles and perspectives of a wide, barren area. Music is used throughout the video, and sounds very calm at first, but later devolves into less calming.
